1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Bladder cancer (BLCA) remains a major cause of cancer-related mortality, particularly in advanced and metastatic stages. Identifying molecular drivers of tumor aggressiveness is critical for developing targeted therapies. Adhesion G protein-coupled receptor D1 (ADGRD1, also known as GPR133) is an orphan aGPCR recently implicated in tumorigenesis. However, its role in bladder cancer and underlying signaling mechanisms remain unknown. Methods: The clinical significance of ADGRD1 was analyzed using GEPIA3 datasets, focusing on clinical stage and prognosis. Stable ADGRD1-knockdown and overexpression BLCA cell lines were established. qPCR, Western blot, CCK-8, colony formation, wound-healing, Transwell, and HUVEC tube formation assays were used to assess proliferation, migration, invasion, and angiogenesis. Xenograft models were used to evaluate Results: ADGRD1 expression was significantly enriched in advanced-stage and high-grade BLCA, where it serves as a robust predictor of poor overall survival and progression-free interval. Functional assays demonstrated that ADGRD1 promotes BLCA cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and endothelial tube formation Conclusions: This study identifies ADGRD1 as a key progression-associated driver in BLCA. By modulating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling axis and the pro-angiogenic microenvironment, ADGRD1 facilitates tumor growth and neovascularization. ADGRD1 may serve as a promising prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for advanced BLCA.
